Drivers door had dropped considerably due to worn out hinges. Picked up a set from a 5dr (not as heavy doors) to replace them. Had to loosen the front wing to gain more access to the bolts. I can't remove the wing as my side skirts cover the lower part. I also can't remove the door as I ran...

It gives a nice sound and seems to improve the pick up. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

The expansion tank fits in its original place. I just removed it to take the picture. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

This is what I did. Cut the pipe to suit and wrapped it in self vulcanising tape. Also made a simple metal bracket to stop it rattling around. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

All back together and in for the MOT. All passed for another year. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

It's now held in place with Nickel Alloy bolts (approx 40), and no; it doesn't flex or move at all. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

So with the weather looking OK for most of the day I started to refit the crossmember. I'd temp fitted it earlier in the week and predrilled all the holes for the mounting points. Then I coated it internally and externally with a corrosion salt spray protector. To top it off I painted it with...

And it's off. Bit of surface rust at the back of it. Lol ;) Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

Lots of spot welds to drill out. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

We don't weld anything on the aircraft I work on and they seem to be strong enough. And like I said, I'll see how it goes. I have all the welding equipment if I need to weld it up. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

Cheers for the info. I'll most probably cut the old one away for ease as it's no good anyway. Also I'll most likely bolt it back on if I can for ease of removal next time as the pattern parts aren't as thick material as oem ones. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

So MOT time again and after a quick check over the car, I've decided that it wouldn't pass with the front crossmember in its current condition. Not wanting it to fail, I've decided to just replace the whole thing. It doesn't look too bad from the front, but it's badly corroded round the...

OK, so I managed to finish off my prototype Megasquirt Bluetooth adaptor. Just need to test it now when I get chance. I've already reprogrammed it with the correct communication settings and also a new password. Wouldn't want anyone else connecting to my ecu now would I. That would be a...

It's short stacks for higher rpm power. Longer ones for low to mid range. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

Make lots of power when turbocharged but a little lacklustre in na form. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

Cheers. Always nice to get feedback. Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk

Had a bit of spare time so decided to make a little circuit to interface between the Megasquirt and the Bluetooth module. The Megasquirt can then talk to the Raspberry pi dash wirelessly . Sent from my WAS-LX1A using Tapatalk
